In this activity, you predefine various amount limits for your employees with which you determine:

  • the maximum document amount the employee is authorized to post
  • the maximum amount the employee can enter as a line item in a customer or vendor account
  • the maximum cash discount percentage the employee can grant in a line item
  • the maximum acceptable tolerance for payment differences for the employee.

Payment differences are posted automatically within certain tolerance groups. This way the system can post the difference by correcting the cash discount or by posting to a separate expense or revenue account.

In this respect you define:

  • the amounts or percentage rates up to which the system is to automatically post to a separate expense or revenue account if it is not possible to correct the cash discount or
  • up to which difference amounts the system is to correct the cash discount. In this case the cash discount is automatically increased or decreased by the difference. using tolerance groups.

You can also additionally differentiate these settings by company code. Since the same rules usually apply to a group of employees, enter the values for employee groups. You can then enter amount limits and tolerances per employee group and company code.

Note

You can also define tolerances without specifying a tolerance group. Leave the field Grp empty in this case. The stored tolerances are then valid for all employees who are not allocated to a group. There must be at least one entry for every company code.

You can also specify tolerances for clearing procedures depending on your customers or vendors. The lower limits from the customer/vendor specifications and employee group are taken in each case during clearing.

Standard settings

In the system, sample tolerances are defined for the standard company codes.

Activities

  1. For every company code, find out which tolerances are to be determined and whether a differentiation according to employee group is necessary. If you want to define different tolerances for your employees, specify the amount limits for each of the groups. If the tolerance limits are to apply to all employees, leave the "group" field empty.
  2. Define the tolerances correspondingly.
  3. If you have defined differing tolerance groups, you then have to assign your employees to a certain tolerance group. To do this, select the activity "Assign users to tolerance groups". This is where you enter your employees under the relevant groups.
